Michael MagrasIn case you haven't watched any of Cory Booker's marathon speech yet, you really should take a few minutes to check it out.

rhrwllnrtr :mastodon:Über die Wunder der <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Wikipedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikipedia</a> kann ein Mensch ja oft auch nur staunen. Kaum hat Senator <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CoryBooker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CoryBooker</a> die 20ste Stunde seiner Marathon-Rede, die technisch kein <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Filibuster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Filibuster</a> ist (habe ich auch gerade erst gelernt), erreicht, gibt es schon eine eigene Seite für diese, in jeder Hinsicht, bemerkenswerte politische Performance.

JennyFor those wondering what good <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/CoryBooker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CoryBooker</a>’s 19+ hour (and counting) <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Senate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Senate</a> speech will do….not only is it being broadcast live by major news and media outlets (AP, MSNBC, CBS, etc.), but even my conservative right-leaning crappy local tv station has taken note. This station rarely pushes back on trump, and usually sugarcoats everything he does. Most people in my area either eagerly accept RW lies or are largely uninformed. This article is on the main page, so it’s a big deal imo.<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPolitics</a>
